The luxury suite took place in the Presidential Suite of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.BeansTalk had the pleasure of attending so we could check out how the stars get pampered for the big show.It’s no wonder that stars such as Debra Messing, Paula Abdul, Tim Daly, Blair Underwood, Billy Baldwin, Lorraine Bracco, Bradley Whitford, Kevin Dillion, Adam Arkin, Michael Maloney, Leeza Gibbons, and Rebecca Gayheart all attended the suite -- as GBK Productions was recipient of BizBash’s “Best Gift Bag Award” for its 2006 Emmy Gift Suite. This year GBK offered guests the opportunity to walk away with scores of gifts and travel packages totaling over $100,000, while providing indulgences such as on-site spa and beauty treatments.In addition, GBK Productions will donate 20% of its proceeds to four charities: Jane Kaczmarek and Bradley Whitford’s Clothes Off Our Back, Kevin Bacon’s 6 Degrees, The Humane Society and the Harbor Foundation. These charities will be able to auction off a complete GBK celebrity gift bag.

Lucky Celebrities who visited GBK’s suite had the opportunity to go home with an exclusive gift bag filled with the newest tech gadgets, health procedures, elite fashion accessories, and spa products on the market, including: a Foundation Room Gold Membership from the House of Blues; lasik eye surgery from Dougherty Laser; a $10,000 certificate to Renaissance Health Centers; lingerie from Aline Alcantara; a $20,000 gift certificate to Iron Horse Trike Works towards the building of a custom motor bike and Mp4 Player Watches and spy equipment from Alexander Innovation Wizard.
